However, some subordinating conjunctions consist more
than one word, e.g. except that, as long as, even if.
E.g.
• Even if he gives me a lift, I am not going to
the funfair.
• Except for Jane, all are expected at the lunch.
• She will be allowed to keep her pet as long as
she looks after it well.
• Even if he gives me a lift, I am not going to
the funfair.

the following ideas:
Cause : since, because, so that
Concession and Comparison : although, as though,
even though
Condition : even if, unless
Place : where, wherever
Time : after, as soon as, whenever
